The Deep Sea Sweater knitting pattern was inspired by the depths of the ocean, the constant movement of waves, seaweeds swirling around and looking for the few beams of light that somehow found their way into the dark, unimaginable, and hard-to-reach underwater world.

Deep Sea Sweater is worked bottom-up in the round using a drop-shoulder construction. Sleeves are worked seamlessly from the armholes and worked in the round to the cuff.

The neckline is wide enough to not be too snug, but is a bit looser than a turtleneck. The pattern includes an option to work a cowl instead of the turtleneck.
